Chapter 3 Managing the network access devices 73
Nortel Secure Network Access Switch 4050 User Guide
You require the following information for each network access device:
• IP address of the switch
• VLAN names and VLAN IDs for the Red, Yellow, and Green VLANs
• the TCP port to be used for Nortel SNA communication
• for Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 switches, a valid rwa user name
Managing network access devices using the CLI
The Nortel SNAS 4050 starts communicating with the network access device as
soon as you enable the switch on the Nortel SNAS 4050 by using the
/cfg/domain #/switch #/ena command.
You cannot configure the VLAN mappings for a network access device in the
Nortel SNAS 4050 domain if the switch is enabled. When you add a network
access device to the domain, it is disabled by default. Do not enable the network
access device until you have completed the configuration. To reconfigure the
VLAN mappings for an existing network access device, first disable it by using
the
/cfg/domain #/switch #/dis command.
